Just come in from work (about 25miles) and as I pull up to the drive way the engine management light has come on….

I did notice it was a little lumpy the other day, anyone care to guess what this might be?

(The engine management in the engine symbol with a lighten bolt through it right?)

Thanks in advance!
:?

i'm pretty sure thats the engine management light, could just be a dirty sensor etc.. get it checked out though

Exhaust emmission light for sure - sign that your lambda probes are having issues!

yeah mine came on once because of a dirty camshaft sensor, made the car stall randomly and loose power, plus it came on after alex cleaned my throttle body! could be anything
